Re: What bourbon are you drinking? Winter 12/13

I made like I was at one of those new kind of whiskey restaurant/ bars popping up that serve flights in 3/4 ounce pours. Lined up the glencairs and measured out some OWA SB, CEHT Tornado and Dant BIB DSP2/DSP16. It was all good. Had me a little 4R OESK after that too.

Weller 12 and I still don't like it after at least 3 pours on different days. It tastes nothing like bourbon to me. It's more like a blended scotch that's woody/smoky. Did I get a bad bottle, or is it that many of you drink scotch and It's familiar taste to you? Out of the 6-7 bourbons I have on hand this is by far the odd man (out.)

I actually said the same thing (tasting like scotch), as it's my first time trying W12... a little thin as well. Can't wait to try the SB Blend once I get some OWA on hand again.

After my initial post this evening, I decided to finally pop in "Lawless" --- Damn good movie about moon-shining back in prohibition. Followed up my initial 4RSmB with OGD114 and a couple chocolate peanut butter balls... and goddamn if the OGD114 didn't impress me more then the 4R, at nearly $10 cheaper to boot! Gotta love the OGD114!
